Is the piledriver banned???

Since the accident with Chyna i've heard that the piledriver(and any move of that effect) was going to be banned. But since the accident Kane(and others) have attempted to do the move but the opposition crawls over their backs and to the floor. Is this just a coincidence or is the move not banned and is able to be performed.

And on this note did anyone know that Stone Cold will not have any moves done above the neck incase of his injury coming back to haunt him. He said it in the WWF Raw magazine but then weeks later the was put in the crossface by Benoit. Whats going on???

By the way, back to my point,

Is the piledriver banned?

A mate of mine e-mailed the wwf about it and he got a reply sayin the piledriver is only gonna be used for special occasions like wrestlemania

Yes he was really injured and it was a life threatening injury, it was all over the WWF website at the time and they showed his operation on Raw. Plus Stephanie was there looking very worried, this backed up the story of her marriage to him as everyone i know says theyre not really married. I dont know?!!?

The DDT and the Tombstone were supposed to have been banned, but as far as I am aware, the pile-driver exists, but its used less frequently!

As far as I'm aware, the piledriver is not banned. No one uses it anymore. The Chyna neck injury was a story line to get her out of the WWF while she was promoting her book.

Tazz is ECW - he can take a piledriver.

the wwf said after WM that the piledriver was done as it is wrestlemania and it was just a one off.

when kane picks people up for the piledriver they are actually picked up for a powerslam (like the bulldog's)

And Jerry 'The King' Lawler did 3 Piledrivers on Tazz at Summerslam 2000!

Taker did the tombstone on HHH at WrestleMania, didn't he??

Also, Taker did it to HHH at Judgement Day 2000 as well...
